He Tried the Experiment.

Yesterday a young man of this city,
who had read in some newspaper that a
watch could be placed on track in front
of an approaching engine, and not be in
jured by the engine passing over it,
thought he would try the experiment.
He placed his watch, nicely balanced, on
the track of the j.. T. & X. w. Railway,
and. when the engine reached it, the
watch slipped off and the train passed
over without touching it. He tried the
experiment several times as the loco
motive was switching about, and finally
got up a bet with a man who had never
seen the trick performed. Taking extra
pains in placing the watch on the rail,
he waited for the engine to pass. AS
such things will sometimes happen, the
watch refused to slide off this time, and
the engine and two or three freight cars
passed over it, MASKING it as thin as a
piece of tin and breaking every wheel
and spring in it. The young man lost his
bet, his watch and his temper, when the
crowd enjoyed a hearty laugh at his ex-
pense.
